linux-toradex.git/arch/alpha/include/asm/rwonce.h, branch v6.7 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules alpha: Override READ_ONCE() with barriered implementation 2020-07-21T09:50:35+00:00 Will Deacon will@kernel.org 2019-10-30T16:50:10+00:00 d6462858851549c62d73eaa14b31132b0f32d6b6 Rather then relying on the core code to use smp_read_barrier_depends() as part of the READ_ONCE() definition, instead override __READ_ONCE() in the Alpha code so that it generates the required mb() and then implement smp_load_acquire() using the new macro to avoid redundant back-to-back barriers from the generic implementation.

Rather then relying on the core code to use smp_read_barrier_depends()
as part of the READ_ONCE() definition, instead override __READ_ONCE()
in the Alpha code so that it generates the required mb() and then
implement smp_load_acquire() using the new macro to avoid redundant
back-to-back barriers from the generic implementation.
